Lldap, a Simplified LDAP Server2022 · github.com · ▲229Hi everyone! For the past year I've been working on a simple LDAP server for user management, targeted at self-hosted servers. The idea is that OpenLDAP is a pain to install, configure and manage, and on top of that you need a frontend if you want a web UI. LDAP instead provides a minimalistic LDAP server that supports the subset of LDAP needed for user management and authentication, with almost no configuration required, and a nice UI/API in front of it. We just released version 0.4 (and 0.3 actually) and it should now be stable enough to use it yourself! We've had some people using it…
BinaryRPC – Lightweight WebSocket-based RPC framework in modern C++2025 · github.com · ▲78Hi HN, I’m a recent CS graduate. During the past few months I wrote BinaryRPC, an open-source RPC framework in modern C++20 focused on low-latency, binary WebSocket messaging. Why I built it * Wanted first-class session support, pluggable QoS levels and a simple middleware chain (global, specific, multi handler) without extra JSON/XML parsing. * Easy developer experience A quick feature list * Binary WebSocket frames – minimal overhead * Built-in session layer (login / reconnect / heartbeat) * QoS1 / QoS2 with automatic ACK & retry * Plugin system – rooms, msgpack, etc.…

Many years ago, I made VJ softwares (to mix live visuals in clubs) for unexpected platforms like the Game Boy Advance, the Playstation 2 and the Raspberry Pi. This year, I’m back with a new web-app: Pikimov. Inspired by Photopea (a free Photoshop clone), I created this web-based motion design & video editor as an alternative to After Effects, to fill empty void. It's free, without signup, without cloud uploads (your files stay on your machine), and your projects are not used for AI models training.
